I'm way overdue for a log entry. Maybe that's because I didn't want to say I haven't done any workouts for a couple days. I think I really needed one and possibly two of those days off as I've been pretty overloaded. But now I really need to get back to the gym.
And even more than that, I need to plan how to put breaks in every so often without feeling like I'm cheating or playing hooky, and without dropping the whole thing. It's more important to me to make exercise sustainable over the long run than to have short term heroics with no follow through.
I'm just not sure where the balance is. Where the line is between "need a break" and "slacking."
Still, I have been continuing to track my food and I have almost 4 weeks of calories tracked. And I have Sunday's (4 days ago) workout to log.
8/30/08, Sunday
After work I did intervals on the elliptical using my heart rate monitor.
5 min warm up
4 min 125-145 BPM ,then 1 min 145 - 155 BPM (repeated 4 times)
